There is no doubt that the ratings of this battle between the upstarts in Los Angeles and the old giants in Boston will set a new high in recent years, and the ratings of all finals after the bull dynasty have surpassed those of the divisional finals alone. It is conceivable that the ratings of the finals will reach such a level.
Chapter three hundred and three The writing on the wall
Charles Buckley watched the camera aim at David Stern for ten seconds and said, "When Boston players and fans reveled in the finals, they were definitely not the most exciting people in the league. David Stern, the president of the league, was the one who expressed his emotions publicly, but there was no doubt that Stern was happy to see the most historic team in the league meet the upstart who attracted the most ratings."
Kenny Smith also said, "Yes, first of all, Stern is no longer worried about the ratings of this year’s finals. Since Michael Jordan washed his hands and quit, the ratings of the finals have been a topic every year, especially the Spurs, showstopper’s old-fashioned academic style. They always have a way to beat the ratings. Last year, they swept the Cavaliers, which was the worst ratings in the league for two years. This year, Stern finally got a good sleep. The Chinese twins alone attracted tens of millions of fans to stay in front of the TV, not to mention the overseas ratings, which set a new nba high."
Charles Buckley laughed. "The twins’ performance this year is the first season, but they are not inferior to the well-known stars. Whether they can lead the Clippers to continue their playoff glory also makes people constantly speculate in excitement that the Celtics have Kevin Gatt, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen, the three giants, how far they can go after setting the winning record in this year’s regular season, and it is still a hot topic. Whether they are old fans or new fans will definitely not miss this feast."
Before the game, Clippers players hated the boss Donald Sterling for following the team to Boston and mobilizing in the small locker room away from home.
See Sterling, who is ten years old, waving his fist and shouting, "We want to beat the Big Three …" Before he could finish, the enthusiastic Clippers all said, "Fuck them! ! !” Then, after the twins led them out of the dressing room, Stirling silently finished the last sentence, "The Celtics led by …"
The reason why the two brothers feel terrible about Sterling at the moment is that some time ago, the owner of the Wenchuan earthquake rocket launched a fund-raising activity for the first time. Alexander was also a little stingy, but at this time, people still did enough superficial work, but their boss Sterling did not show that even their teammates, the two brothers and Yao set up the Wenchuan Disaster Relief Foundation and donated a lot of money, but now Sterling has not shown that it is really penniless.
After the Clippers came out, one of the Celtics immediately greeted him. The 39-year-old Sam Cassell was wearing a green jersey in the first half of the regular season. Cassell was also a member of the Clippers. The aliens played well in the playoffs. He showed a very high level of competition in more than ten minutes as a substitute for Rajon Rondo. The green shirts made great contributions along the way.
"I didn’t expect us to meet in the finals. If I had known, I wouldn’t have left." Castle made a light joke to the Clippers. The aliens played in the Clippers for three years and were familiar with the Clippers players.
Mobry and others chatted with Castle before the game, which made D North Shore Garden a little smaller for a while. The Clippers and the Celtics have no deep hatred. It should be said that the Clippers are good with other teams except the Lakers, except that the Clippers’ record is too bad and they rarely enter the playoffs. They also have a relationship with their asshole boss Sterling.
That’s right. Speaking of Clippers owner Donnert Sterling, people will call him a miser, a sex maniac, a racist, and a clown who loves to cheat … Many people think that he should have been kicked out of the nba long ago, but Sterling still has another side that few people know, that is, many bosses regard him as the leader and tough as Stern has failed to shake Sterling’s position in the past three years.
For many small ball market owners in nba, Sterling is a stickler because they want to do it but dare not do it. In the past three years, many small ball markets in nba have complained that the income of nba teams is equally divided and the president Stern is unfair. However, most of them will write letters complaining that Sterling dares to cheat with the Lakers and Stern.
Today, David Stern and Donald Stern both came to the scene to watch the game. There are countless stories about the enemies who have been fighting each other for more than three years.
The feud between the two dates back to the first decade. Since Stern became the president of the nba in 1994, his superhuman wisdom and tough skills have solved too many difficult problems in the league. He can turn the nba from a drug-addicted league to a middle-class favorite, make the nba the most international sports league, and let the unruly Iverson wear the west … But the only person he hasn’t solved in three years is Donnert Sterling.
Sterling had too many feats that made Stern almost vomit blood. For example, Sterling forcibly moved the Clippers to Los Angeles without the approval of the League in 1994, and after being fined 250,000 yuan, he refused to pay in various ways and finally paid 60,000 yuan. For example, in the nba bosses’ joint meeting, Stern often suddenly attacked Stern in public and said, "I want to fire you!"
In recent years, Sterling has made a lot of farce on the sidelines and provoked Stern’s anger at the boss meeting. For such a ruffian Lai Stern, he tried several times to force him to sell the Clippers, but failed to do so. On the one hand, Sterling is really a hob meat, hard and soft; But more importantly, many small ball market owners secretly supported Sterling and refused to vote for him.
In order to compete with the other three major sports leagues, the nba has detailed regulations on team relocation, so as to avoid teams from getting together as much as possible. Even if the two teams come to the same city for inevitable reasons, the latecomers must pay the first one a large expansion. In 1976, when nba and aba merged, aba new york Nets paid the Knicks 40,000 yuan.
David Stern is a lawyer who is eloquent and good at citing rules and regulations to support his decision. At that time, Stern, his opponent, was also a lawyer, and he was also very good at wrangling. Stern issued a 250,000-dollar fine (including punishment and payment to the Lakers for expansion), but Stern flew into a rage by refusing to pay.
Facing the enemy who sounds similar to his own name, young David Stern was just five months old in the nba boss, and the appeal clippers moved without authorization. His first problem was also a serious crisis. Facing Sterling, he threatened to go to court to sue and failed, and then called the bosses’ joint meeting to try to force Sterling to sell the team by voting, but few bosses responded. Young David Stern finally failed.
At that time, many teams managed to make ends meet, and a few of them, such as the Lakers and Knicks, could make a lot of money. Many bosses longed for the nba to share the benefits equally like the nfl (the nfl will share the broadcast income, national sponsorship, 1/3 ticket income and 1% surrounding business income every year, which accounts for about 670% of the nfl league’s annual income).
The owners of all teams have always coveted the lucrative profits of the Lakers. They have always had complex emotional envy and some jealousy for the Lakers and Buss, and always tried their best to get a piece of it. When the Clippers moved to Los Angeles without authorization and directly divided up the Lakers market, many bosses tacitly chose to give up when they didn’t vote.
Stern was very embarrassed because the bosses were watching the clippers move. In the end, Deribas, the "victim", came forward to coordinate Sterling and finally took out 60,000 yuan. After that, Sterling became a shadow on Stern’s mind, but at the same time Sterling gradually became a small ball city. Allies and leaders of the bosses led these people against David Stern in the next two years.
The most lamentable thing about Sterling is that he never cares about his billionaire status and spends a little money on it anytime and anywhere. He refused to hire a trainer for the team and asked coach Paul silas to bandage the players instead. Some fans won the Clippers and held a shooting contest, but Sterling refused to pay the paltry $1 and was sued for it.
The Clippers are the latest team in the nba to buy a special plane and hire teaching assistants. The salary of a team’s executives is also the lowest in the nba. Sterling has been in charge of the Clippers for three years and failed to advance to the playoffs for 26 times, so he has not selected many high-ranking rookies. However, even if he plays, it is difficult to get a high contract renewal. He often signs first and then sells it. Sterling earns a lot of cash from it.
Now Sterling has another crime. After the Clippers donated more than two million dollars in Wenchuan, his boss didn’t pay a penny, which was humiliated by the Los Angeles media.
"You did a good job against the Lakers, but you can’t do it again in our head today. I know you want to win the championship in the first season, but remember that your appetite must not be too big, which will kill you." Before the game, Gatt hugged Ji Guo shamed each other. Today, the two of them were confident against the Wolf King when they saw that he looked like his brother Fox, but when they saw his serious expression, they knew that this guy was already ready to refuse to capsize in the gutter.
"That’s what Duncan told me. He said that the future is me, but I told him that it’s already our brother’s time." Ji Guo was ashamed to eat a little bit. He looked at Gatt and smiled and made up another knife. "You are afraid that you will be the last peak this year, but you have to work hard. If we kill you, I will be stronger and weaker, and you will never have a chance to beat me. By the way, it seems that you haven’t won the championship yet?"
Gart looked at Ji Guo’s naive face and wanted to give him an old fist. His acting skills were so grandiose that he pretended to be your uncle!
Ji Guoqiu hugged a giant panda with Perkins not far away, and it’s not easy today. Perkins is an excellent blue-collar worker. This year, he is at the peak of his weight, and he is not as clumsy as he was later in the Thunder. I’m afraid it’s hard to find a way to get outside to bully him.
Because Sterling, an old asshole, interfered before the game, old Deng Liwei didn’t arrange too detailed tactics before the game, but how to play today’s game was discussed in detail in yesterday’s tactical class, and the players wouldn’t feel at a loss.
It seems to be a good sign that the Clippers did well in shooting and warming up before the game.
Old Deng Liwei believes that their point guard and center position for Celtic are the places where they are most likely to make a fuss.
Billups vs Rajon Rondo Ji Guo Qiu vs Perkins Celtics, both of these players have something to target. Rajon Rondo is too young and inexperienced, and his skills are a little immature. In addition to his outstanding athletic ability, the Celtics are not the opponents of Billups. Mr. Key may continue to explode the No.1 position of the Green Shirts in the finals like the Lakers.
Ji Guoqiu suffered from Perkins’ strength, but Bynum’s strength was not small in the Western Conference finals. Ji Guoqiu played around by the panda warrior. With his speed and flexibility, both ends of the offensive and defensive have enough advantages. We can expect him to thread the thread online to reduce Ji Guoqiu’s pressure on Gatt.
After the two teams entered the stadium to warm up and say hello, they quickly came to 19: 00 sharp, and the first match of NBA 27-2008 playoff finals was official.
The two sides came off the bench and went to the middle circle to prepare for a ball fight with Gatt.
! ! ! ! ! w! w! w! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Joe Crawford, the referee of the law enforcement game, threw a basketball into the sky in the middle circle …
